Good points made, but I fear the warming is actually higher than your article points out if you take the pre-Industrial baseline from 1880-1920 as does NASA Goddard Space Studies scientists like Professor James Hansen. That puts our average warming over pre-Industrial in the last nine years (also last 9 warmest ever) at 1.18 °C . Same trend as your numbers, but just worse in terms of result -- see table below and link for explanation as to baseline.
